Age Demographics
The age distribution of a population is a key indicator of a region's growth potential, workforce availability, and social service needs. Younger populations often indicate growing communities with future workforce potential, while older populations may suggest established retirement destinations.
Median Age: The age that divides a population into two numerically equal groups.
Age Cohorts: Analyzing specific age brackets helps identify college towns (18-34), family-oriented suburbs (Under 18), or retirement communities (65+).
